Rohit Shetty confirms standalone film for Deepika Padukone's Shakti Shetty

Recently, when Rohit Shetty was in conversation with News18 Showsha, he confirmed that a stand-alone film based on Deepika's character is in the works. He also revealed that why it took him so long to bring a lady cop. He said, "The wait was to get the right script and the right kind of launch for the character. Till 2018, I wasn’t even sure if there’s going to be a cop universe."

Sharing more details about the film Shetty said that they are still to write the film but they do have a concept in mind. "I know what the character will be like and her basic story arc but I don’t know her whole journey yet as a director or writer. But a female-led cop film headlined by Lady Singham will definitely happen, otherwise we wouldn’t have introduced her at all. There’s a reason why we’ve emphasised on that character and her name in Singham Again," he added.

Rohit Shetty also mentioned that due to the pandemic when Sooryavanshi got postponed, his plan of Shati Shetty's spin-off also got delayed. He recalled how Sooryavanshi was supposed to release in 2019 and the response to the trailer also has their hopes high. "But then suddenly, the film was in cans for two years and everything got delayed because of that. According to our original line-up, Singham Again was also supposed to release in 2020," he added.
